‘Victory of good governance’: PM Modi congratulates Nitish, allies for Bihar win
“The people have given us a massive majority after witnessing our track record and our vision to take the state to new heights,” PM Narendra Modi posted on X
Prime Minister Narendra Modi termed it a “victory of good governance” after the BJP-led NDA, under the leadership of CM Nitish Kumar of the JD(U), achieved a massive win in the Bihar assembly election 2025, results of which were coming in on Friday.
The NDA was leading on, or had won, around 200 seats in the 243-strong Bihar Vidhan Sabha, as per latest data by the Election Commission. This was its best performance ever in Bihar.
“Victory of development has been achieved. Victory of the spirit of public welfare has been achieved. Victory of social justice has been achieved,” PM Modi's post read.
He added, “My deepest gratitude to the family members of Bihar, who have blessed the NDA with a historic and unprecedented victory in the 2025 assembly elections. This resounding public mandate will empower us to serve the people and work with new resolve for Bihar.”
He tagged all allies of the BJP in his series of posts. "The NDA has ensured all-round development of the state. The people have given us a massive majority after witnessing our track record and our vision to take the state to new heights. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to Chief Minister Nitish Kumar ji and our NDA family colleagues Chirag Paswan ji, Jitan Ram Manjhi ji, and Upendra Kushwaha ji for this resounding victory."
Earlier, the BJP's Bihar X handle shared a post with a photo showing Modi with Nitish, and called the victory a success of the “jodi”, the duo.
